"Book three of a fabulous romantic suspense trilogy!"

Fresh Fiction Review

Desperate Deeds
Dee Davis

Romance Suspense

The third book in Dee Davis' romantic suspense trilogy is no less suspenseful than the first two. This is Tyler Hanson's story. Tyler has been with A-Tac for a long time as the demolitions expert. She is specifically asked to be put on a mission in which prototype detonators are stolen and the two men she is escorting are murdered, suspicion rears its ugly head especially when she has a bizarre story to tell involving her mother's suicide and the blue scarf left behind which promptly disappears.

Tyler meets British operative Owen Wakefield during this mission and has a one night stand with him. Now mysteriously he's attached to A-Tac for some reason. Does he have some sort of agenda and why does he seem to want to get closer to Tyler? More and more evidence points to a mole in the midst of A-Tac and now the team has to try to rat out one of their own. Will they be able to do what needs to be done before it is too late?

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading all of Dee Davis' books but her romantic suspense are just cutting edge top of the line reads. Not only do her books succeed in capturing my attention from the very first paragraph but they hold my attention like a vise throughout the entire book. I am always on the edge of my seat and cannot turn the pages fast enough. This trilogy is no exception. I highly recommend this book and the other two of this fantastic series! I eagerly look forward to the next read from Dee Davis.

SUMMARY

A-Tac is an elite CIA unit masquerading as faculty at an Ivy League college. Brilliant, badass, and seemingly bulletproof, the members of A-Tac are assigned to the riskiest missions and the most elusive targets.

When a professional group of thieves steal a shipment of thermonuclear detonators, Commander Solomon has reason to suspect that information from inside A-Tac facilitated the heist. He instructs his team to set up a sting to recover the detonators and to trap the traitor.

Trusted A-Tac member Tyler Hanson is skeptical of most everything - including pompous intellectuals who live life inside an ivory tower. So when Solomon brings in renowned physicist and Nobel Prize winner Owen Wakefield to head the team, she has her doubts.

Wakefield, for his part, has no idea what to make of the hard-as-brass woman assigned to provide him with logistical support. Nitro to her glycerin, their sparks threaten the entire operation, until the traitor in their midst tightens the noose. Now they have no choice but to join forces to find the detonators and stop the man who has betrayed them all.
